This paper reports on the characteristic changes of Au/GaxIn 1-xSb thermocompressed Gunn diodes after undergoing heating cycles. The effects of annealing time and temperature on metallurgical interdiffusion have been studied. By measuring the relative concentration depth profiles, both out-diffusion and two distinct depth regions inside the semiconductor were found. A rapid indiffusion of gold was associated to an intermediate region, we believe this may be due to a damaged zone by the thermocompression. The contact quality, characterised by current-voltage and microwave emission measurements, has been correlated to metallurgical transformations of contact layer in order to achieve optimum device performances.Nous étudions les changements d...
